| Gene Symbol | SLC6A4 |
| Gene Full Name | solute carrier family 6 (neurotransmitter transporter), member 4 |
| Background | This gene encodes an integral membrane protein that transports the neurotransmitter serotonin from synaptic spaces into presynaptic neurons. The encoded protein terminates the action of serotonin and recycles it in a sodium-dependent manner. This protein is a target of psychomotor stimulants, such as amphetamines and cocaine, and is a member of the sodium:neurotransmitter symporter family. A repeat length polymorphism in the promoter of this gene has been shown to affect the rate of serotonin uptake and may play a role in sudden infant death syndrome, aggressive behavior in Alzheimer disease patients, and depression-susceptibility in people experiencing emotional trauma.

| Function | Serotonin transporter whose primary function in the central nervous system involves the regulation of serotonergic signaling via transport of serotonin molecules from the synaptic cleft back into the pre-synaptic terminal for re-utilization. Plays a key role in mediating regulation of the availability of serotonin to other receptors of serotonergic systems. Terminates the action of serotonin and recycles it in a sodium-dependent manner.

| Cellular Localization | Cell membrane, Endomembrane system, Endosome membrane, Multi-pass membrane protein. [UniProt] |
| Calculated MW | 70 kDa |
| PTM | Glycosylated; modification with sialylated N-glycans is a requirement for transporters to associate with each other and to function as homooligomeric forms. Phosphorylation at Thr-276 increases 5-HT uptake and is required for cGMP-mediated SERT regulation. Phosphorylation upon PKC stimulation modifies the SERT distribution and density in the membrane, and diminishes the uptake capacity. [UniProt] |
